Compression support&resistance [LM]Hello traders,
I would like to present you Compression support&resistance script. The idea behind is to look for areas of price compression(inside bar candles). Basically the S/R lines are created after three candles that are formed in certain pattern and volume conditions. First candle of pattern is usually the most volatile and fist inside bar after volatile candle high and low creates S/R lines in order to look for breakouts or for future bounces of the S/R line. Also by default volume has to be decreasing from candle to candle, although this condition can be controlled by setting.
It has various settings as my other S/R scripts for multi timeframe analysis. The current timeframe uses line API but for multi timeframe I use plot lines. There are two filters. Volume filter for declining volume of the pattern candles and volatility filter which renders line only in case that pattern occurs after some % change has happened within some lookback period.
Credit also for this indicator goes to @berkek as he took time to explain it to me.
Hope you will enjoy it,
Lukas
Индикатор Inside Bar
4 SMAs & Inside Bar (Colored)SMAs and Inside Bar strategy is very common as far as Technical analysis is concern. This script is a combination of 10-20-50-200 SMA and Inside Bar Candle Identification.
SMA Crossover:
4 SMAs (10, 20, 50 & 200) are combined here in one single indicator.
Crossover signal for Buy as "B" will be shown in the chart if SMA 10 is above 20 & 50 and SMA 20 is above 50.
Crossover signal for Sell as "S" will be shown in the chart if SMA 10 is below 20 & 50 and SMA 20 is below 50.
Inside Bar Identification:
This is to simply identify if there is a inside bar candle. The logic is very simple - High of the previous candle should be higher than current candle and low of the previous candle should be lower than the current candle.
If the previous candle is red, the following candle would be Yellow - which may give some bullish view in most of the cases but not always
If the previous candle is green, the following candle would be Black - which may give some bearish view in most of the cases but not always
Be Cautious when you see alternate yellow and black candle, it may give move on the both side
Please comment if you have any interesting ideas to improve this indicator.
Price Action: Inside Bar BoxesThis script automatically draws rectangles around bars inside IB pattern.
Note :: because Pinescript does not allow changes to already drawn charts on historical bars, checkbox "show only last box" doesn't work for arrows
Narrow Range (NR) IndicatorNarrow Range (NR) trading strategy is a breakout-based method that assumes that the price of security trends up or down after a brief consolidation in a narrow range. This indicator can plot:
1. Narrow Range (NR) 4, 7, and 21
2. Narrow Range (NR) 4, 7, and 21 + Inside Bars (IB)
NR 4/NR 7/NR 21 day acts as a confirming factor on where the price will move further. Breakout of NR 4/NR 7/NR 21 candle with high volumes indicates bullishness, while the breakdown candle indicates bearishness.
MY BOX by GustavoThis box contains two strategies, several moving averages and Bollinger Bands.
PFR or "Reversal closing price" is a simple and effective strategy, widespread by the Brazilian trader Stormer.
The purpose is to make the candles generate the input signal more clearly.
Description:
When the sales PFR candle appears colored, watch out for the next candle. If he breaks the closing of the PFR sell candle, SALE!
Your stop should be at the maximum of the PFR candle and your target projected at 1.618 in the fibonacci extension.
When the buy PFR candle appears colored, watch out for the next candle. If it breaks the closing of the buy PFR candle, BUY!
Your stop should be at the low of the PFR candle and your target projected at 1.618 in the fibonacci extension.
Inside Bar: The candle has its maximum less than the maximum of the previous candle and its minimum greater than the minimum of the previous candle.
Settings:

Note 1.
The patterns are based on extensive study of reference and famous sources and the experience of me and my friends in trading and analysis with price action methods.
Note 2.
Due to the Pine limitations in the number of outputs | plots for each script, our attempt has been made to select the best and most important patterns.
Note 3.
So far, many scripts have been written in this field, but our experience with all of them and even the build in version was not satisfactory, and this was the initial motivation for making the script.
We strive to improve progress and elimination of shortcomings and we will continue to make this better.
Note 4.
Through personal experience and based on the principles of market and candlestick psychology, we discovered a new type of pattern and named it as Kayo.
kayo is a two candle pattern which formed when:
1.We have a pivot point with prior candles as left bars and following candles as right bar. Pivot candle called as second candle.
2.In a bullish kayo, first candle must closed descending and second candle must closed as ascending. For bearish kayo vise versa.
3.In a bullish kayo, second candle's lower wick must be longer then upper wick.
4. A pattern marked as kayo when its conditions do not correspond to any of the other patterns(include the confirmation that user added), ie it has the last naming priority over the other patterns.
Note 5.
When you active confirmation options for patterns like hammer, engulf and etc which they conditions are like kayo in some extent, if they can't pass the confirmation steps, they can be marked as kayo pattern.
Note 6.
If you active volume confirmation for Three white soldiers | Three black crows, the confirmation get passed if the volume of forth or third candle increased as value as entered relative to volume EMA3 of 3 candles.
Note 7.
In a bullish pattern all highs of following candles MUST be higher than prior highs and all lows of following candles MUST be higher than prior lows. For bearish patterns vise versa.
This type of confirmation depends on High and Low NOT close!

Hikkake PatternLifted description from web:
Hikkake means to trap, trick, or ensnare. Primarily, this price pattern seeks to identify inside bar breakouts and profit from their failures.
An inside bar is a price bar that is entirely within the range of the preceding price bar. Inside bars are typical on price charts of most timeframes.
While you’ll often find inside bars in congested markets, they also offer a low-risk entry point for price action traders. The contracted range of an inside bar offers a natural tight stop-loss.
Hence, inside bar breakouts seem attractive. However, if you are patient and focus on identifying false breakouts, you might be able to find more reliable trading setups in the form of Hikkakes.
In a nutshell, the Hikkake pattern offers a systematic approach to trading false inside bar breakouts.
As a filter I incorporated VWAP into the code to only trigger Bullish / Bearish signals when price is Above/Below VWAP respectively. The ATR is used to create a Stop buffer (red cross) for the Entry signal ( green dot ). The R1 and R2 (orange squares) are two possible profit targets that are customizable to different Risk multiples based upon the difference between Entry and Stop.
NR4 / NR7 + Inside BarIndicator Script for identifying Narrow Range 4 / 7 + Inside Bar
It also helps to check whether NR4 / NR7 breakout trading has been profitable or not in the past in a particular instrument.
It has helped me to select profitable scripts and avoid losing ones. Can be used for anytime frame.
SIGNAL
NR4 == Narrowest range of 4 periods + signal day is an inside bar
NR4 & NR7 == Narrowest range of 7 periods + signal day is an inside bar
SIGNAL "PROFIT" -
Prior day was NR4 / NR7 and next day price broke out of prior day range in 1 direction and closed in the direction of breakout away from breakout price, resulting in a profit trade.
SIGNAL "LOSS" -
Prior day was NR4 / NR7 and next day price broke out of prior day range and returned back to close inside the narrow zone OR went in opposite direction after the initial breakout, resulting in a loss trade.
Inside Bar Visualizer PineV4I didn't find a study for Inside bar as I wanted. Therefore I wrote a one with PineV4. This may help you to see inside bars.
It can recalculate and works with either (opens-closes) or (highs-lows)
Cheers! :)

Three-Bar Inside Bar PaternAuthor: Johnan Prathap TASC March 2011
The typical inside bar two-bar view indicates minimal activity in a market. It is defined as a bar (or series of bars) that is completely within the range of the preceding bar; that is, it has a higher low and lower high than the bar immediately before it. Some traders consider a bar an inside bar if the high and low are equal to the previous bar or where there are several consecutive bars within the range of a previous bar.
Many analysts tend to view inside bars as an indication of declining market activity, or possibly a prelude to a large movement in either direction.
Inside Bar FailureYou can check edge profitability by adjusting the forward looking input, eg. how profitable is this signal after X bars.
Flying Buddha Inside Bars Indicator v1 by JustUncleLDescription:
=============
This indicator plots MAs and paints Triggered Alert Arrows base on Flying Buddha candle patterns.
The “Flying Buddha” Pattern is defined as:
---------------------------------------------
A candlestick chart with two moving averages: the 5 period exponential moving average (fast EMA) and the 10 period simple moving average (slow SMA), both applied to the closing price. The default “Flying Buddha” pattern is any candlestick which:
1. Has a LOW above the fast EMA, when the fast EMA is above the slow SMA (a bearish “Flying Buddha”); or
2. Has a HIGH below the fast EMA, when the fast EMA is below the slow SMA (a bullish “Flying Buddha”).
Alert Trigger:
---------------
A Flying Buddha Alert is triggered on the first candle that is a non-flying Buddha candle after a Flying Buddha Pattern candle sequence. Flying Buddhas can optionally be filtered by InsideBars and PinBars.
The Alert Trigger is optionally filtered by the Directional MA (default=EMA 89), and/or by Minimum Sequence length of Flying Buddhas.
Moving Averages:
------------------
You can select between 11 different types of moving averages, for each MA line in Flying Buddha MAs (fastMA and slowMA) and the Directional Filter MA:
SMA = Simple Moving Average.
EMA = Exponential Moving Average.
WMA = Weighted Moving Average
VWMA = Volume Weighted Moving Average
SMMA = Smoothed Simple Moving Average.
DEMA = Double Exponential Moving Average
TEMA = Triple Exponential Moving Average.
HullMA = Hull Moving Average
SSMA = Ehlers Super Smoother Moving average
ZEMA = Near Zero Lag Exponential Moving Average.
TMA = Triangular (smoothed) Simple Moving Average.
NOTE: This is a concept indicator, I also intend to release a trading BOT suitable for Autoview, based on this concept indicator.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence) + Inside BarMACD (Moving Average Convergence/Divergence) + Inside Bar so that free users can have two things in same indicator.
